How could you use an non-US cc??

i linked my australian commbank paypass card with google wallet as well. for some strange reason, google deducted both my prepaid card and my credit card when i used it for the first time yesterday... anyone had this?
So far, nobody can successfully use a foreign credit card to pay via GW because it needs a Zip code. Your credit card is registered without a registered zip address. Your payment will not be authorized at the paypass terminal! Please tell us more on how you can break that rule.

I tried adding both a Visa and MasterCard from Canada with a USA ZIP code, it was added successfully. But I have not tested to see if they work, as in, paying with them. You can also check my FAQ at the near end of my guide, your answer should be there ;)

If you check the FAQ at the near end of my guide, the answer to your question will be there. But, unfortunately, this is because your phone is missing the secure library files needed to run Google Wallet, hopefully this is fixed in the near future. Sorry!

It didn't work on my HTC Amaze 4G running ARHD v3.0. I'm getting the insufficient keys. I searched it up in the Amaze forum and apparently it has to do with the NFC chip that's in our phone. :( I guess the Amaze will never get Google wallet
The FAQ will probably answer your question, but I'll answer it for you, unfortunately this is because phones like the HTC One X phones are missing the secure library files needed to run Google Wallet, hopefully this is solved soon! But I'm sorry for this inconvenience! You can also the Stock ROM for your phone, because 99% of ROMs do not have the necessary files needed to run Google Wallet.

You can add any existing, foreign or US, or any imaginable cc, as many and as often as you want. They are all accepted by the GW program for at the time when you add them, they will not be passed to the issuing banks for verification. They will be matched and verified with the bank's records ONLY WHEN they are read by the paypass terminal.

Be careful, if you try your card unsuccessfully via GW for several times, your bank will suspend your card and you cannot use it anymore unless you phone the bank to reactivate it. They may think your card was stolen and was tried by the stealer.

My advice is, don't waste your time trying to add any foreign cc to GW, just enjoy the free 10 google dollar. Wait until it is officially available in your country!

That's another possibility that I thought too, better stick to Gift Cards for now from my FAQ! ;)

I'm a minor without a credit card...okay so I got wallet to install, and I got the free $10 prepaid card. I live in canada so even if I had a credit card, the payment wouldn't work, right? What if I just rely on google prepaid cards? Would that work?

Hey, I'm in a similar situation as you, you will have to get a credit card to top up eventually, but for now you can use the Prepaid Google Card. To top up (add money to the card) follow my FAQ at the near end of my guide. When you get the card from the FAQ you can add it on its own or if you purchased $20 or more add it to the google prepaid card. Feel free to ask any more questions, don't hesitate! :)

Here in the States, they sell a Google gift card. It's probably not available in Canada, but perhaps someone could buy it for you. If it's like other top up cards, all you need is the secret numbers from an activated card.

Hey, where do you get them from? I'm visiting the states for 2 days and in was wondering where you can get them. Thank you in advance! :)

Thanks! But I don't want to pay $39 for a $25 dollar card :s I think I'll just use my $10 and wait for GW to come to canada... Back in may, Google said they were working with carries and GW should be available in canada in around 6 months. I think they're on schedule, since it seems like they overhauled and (almost) mastered GW for the states in the recent update... I think they're prepping for international releases now, so I'm guess UK and Canada is soon.

Haha yeah, I understand, I paid ~$22 for a $15 MasterCard, but because I could not top up, I just r registered the card with a USA address and added I as a standalone card with the new update :)

What a coincidence! I'm here right now, thanks! But so far, I didn't find any, not in the electronics at least ;)
That is the link that says it is already available at Target and Radio Shack.

did you check in the right section of titanium? did you allow root permissions to titanium?

It has got root permissions, and I batch defrosted every app on the phone to make sure that it was defrosted, to no avail. The app still doesn't show up :/ Are there any other methods I can try?

Not really all that relevant, but today marks the day that people in Portugal realised that the future of payments goes through smartphones, and they (association of retailers) have began the implementation of the system, in cooperation with the biggest communications company in here.

They expect full implementation within next year.
